Adjectives picture cloze PPT starter for Entry Level Functional Skills English Teaching notes A PPT used to introduce the Adjectives Picture Cloze Exercises (Emma Scotland 2006 updated 2021: https://www.skillsworkshop.org/resources/adjective_picture_cloze_exercises_for_entry_functional_english) Use the PowerPoint as an initial group activity, inviting learners to suggest words to fill the gaps for five (or ten) sentences. They could have the first page of the accompanying worksheet available (see link above)to either fill in at the time, or after the group activity. Students can then work in pairs or groups to complete Q11-14 on the second page of the worksheet. This offers group support and ideas to build their confidence in using adjectives. The final challenge is for learners to write their own descriptive sentences. Originally contributed by Moira Garland (January 2007), formerly at Park Lane College, Leeds. Updated by Maggie Harnew https://www.skillsworkshop.org/users/maggie_harnew in June 2021 to reflect the Reformed Functional Skills content.
